Chapter 2375: Enmeshed in One’s Own Trap
Inside the temple, Mojard shouted in astonishment, “As expected of someone who ended the lives of so many powerful monsters, the regent’s exceptional movement alone is something that not many in the Monster World could compare to.”
Even though those monsters' absolute cultivation levels had all been higher than Zu An's, their combat skills were beneath his. On top of that, his evasive skills were absolutely stunning. Many opponents had been faster and stronger than him, but their use of skill and technique couldn't compare. Seemingly, it was only because this world’s source wasn’t strong enough that his cultivation wasn’t too high in comparison. If he went to a stronger world, his strength would quickly shoot through the roof and exceed that of many powerful beings.
Unfortunately, Zu An wouldn’t have that chance anymore! Just how powerful was the Monster Lord? He was even using the Bloodmelt Demon Needles now, so how could this regent still survive?
The web formed by the ten Bloodmelt Demon Needles finally pressured Zu An to the point that he couldn't dodge anymore. The Monster Lord smiled sinisterly and said, “Let’s see how you escape now!”
He then activated the Bloodmelt Demon Needles’ most powerful form. Every single Bloodmelt Demon Needle turned into ten thousand needles that were as thin as hairs. They filled the entire space as they flew at Zu An.
The Monster Lord had been watching from the side this entire time, collecting information. Now, he already understood the secrets of Zu An’s movement. The latter's instantaneous movement skill was extremely powerful, but it had a clear weakness, which was that he couldn't use it completely uninterrupted. There was a cooldown whenever it was used twice. Even though this cooldown was short and ordinary cultivators couldn't sense it, the Monster Lord was anything but ordinary!
Furthermore, in order to ensure that Zu An wasn’t exaggerating that weakness to throw him off guard, the Monster Lord chose a moment when Zu An had just spent all of his strength and was transitioning to another move, only then unleashing his most powerful attack! Such an unavoidable attack was made at such a close distance, and so abruptly, that even if Zu An used the Tranquility Bell again it would be completely impossible to stop the power of a hundred thousand Bloodmelt Demon Needles.
Zu An was about to be turned into a porcupine by these needles, and it seemed inevitable that he would be turned into a puddle of blood. But then the look of fear in his eyes suddenly disappeared, being replaced with a mysterious smile.
The Monster Lord shivered. He suddenly sensed that something wasn’t quite right. He really couldn't figure out just how Zu An was going to get out of this situation of inevitable death.
